Alternattiva Demokratika - The Green Party has said that it has been informed by the European Commission DG Environment that it is still studying the case of the Mistra Village massive building project and is in contact with the Maltese Government for clarifications regarding this. This after AD presented a petition of over 550 residents signatures to the EU Commission on this case last November.
Carmel Cacopardo AD Spokesperson on sustainable development, said "The outline permit given for the ex-Mistra Village Development in Xemxija is tangible proof of the fact that MEPA is causing continuous damage to our country's natural and historical heritage."
"Despite the fact that over 53,000 dwellings lie empty in our country, MEPA goes ahead with the permit for such an enormous and massive project as the one on the ex-Mistra Village site, which includes 868 residential units, there is absolutely no need for this kind of project, which is meant only to justify the self-existence of the construction industry," Mr Cacopardo added.
Alternattiva Demopkratika concluded by saying that it maintains that such massive development is creating a very dangerous precedent in Malta and that it is time to declare a moratorium on such massive residential developments.
